This fabulous 4-CD box set with an 84-page booklet on Charly Records is a great summary of the wide-reaching influence that Sun Records cast on future generations of musicians and fans alike. It is thematically compiled on each disc, with the first disc devoted to the blues, the second to country, the third to rockabilly and the last to the hits of Sun. Elvis is not on this box set, but his Sun recordings are easily available on numerous compilations.
All in all, a great history lesson on the beginnings of Rock n Roll.
